A Flavor-First Cocktail Experience, Made More Convenient for Today's Drinkers (+21)
Each expression is inspired by Ritual's award-winning zero-proof spirits, including Agave Spirit Alternative, Gin Alternative, and Aperitif Alternative, and comes in lightly carbonated cans that deliver true-to-cocktail flavor without sacrificing quality or taste. The Margarita, G&T and Spritz each highlight the character of their base spirits and bring Ritual's familiar profiles into a more effortless cocktail experience that stays true to the brand's flavor-first approach.

Enjoyed straight from the can or poured over ice, Ritual's non-alcoholic canned cocktails are the easy, grab-and-go choice for any occasion, from backyard barbecues to beach coolers and everything in between:

• Ritual Zero Proof Margarita – A fresh tasting margarita with bright, zesty, bold citrus notes upfront, balanced by tart citrus and smooth earthy agave, with an invigorating finish.
• Ritual Zero Proof G&T – Classic gin and tonic flavors meet notes of juniper, coriander, angelica root, and fresh-tasting lime zest to balance out the crisp, bitter tonic.
• Ritual Zero Proof Spritz – An effervescent aperitivo with bittersweet citrus and floral notes, hints of spice and herbs, and rosy and citrusy champagne flavors on the finish.

"As more consumers embrace moderation without stepping away from social drinking, the expectation for non-alcoholic options has shifted from 'available' to 'exceptional,'" said Megan Hurtuk, Head of Marketing of Non-Alcoholic Beverages at DIAGEO North America. "Ritual was built on the idea that you shouldn't have to compromise on flavor or experience, and this launch brings that same standard to the ready-to-drink shelf, delivering cocktail-quality options in the moments where convenience matters most."

Expanding Access to Premium Non-Alcoholic Cocktails
Ritual RTDs underscore the brand's commitment to making cocktail culture more accessible by enabling more shared social occasions for those who choose not to drink or drink in moderation. In a portable, ready-to-drink format, Ritual non-alcoholic cocktails extend the brand into new consumption moments, sitting comfortably alongside full-ABV offerings in social settings year-round.

Availability
Ritual Zero Proof RTDs are available now in the United States at select retailers and online at www.ritualzeroproof.com for a suggested retail price of $13.99 per four-pack and will remain a permanent addition to the Ritual Zero Proof portfolio.

ABOUT RITUAL ZERO PROOF:
Ritual Zero Proof is the number one non-alcoholic spirits brand in North America and an early leader in the category - crafted to echo the taste, smell and mixes of traditional spirits, only without the alcohol. The brand's award-winning portfolio includes whiskey, agave, gin, rum and aperitif alternatives, each designed as a one-to-one replacement for traditional spirits, enabling bartenders and home mixologists to create non-alcoholic versions of classic cocktails like an Old Fashioned, Negroni or Margarita.

Founded in Chicago by three longtime friends, Ritual launched in September 2019 with Gin and Whiskey Alternatives after experimenting with hundreds of recipes and consulting with bartenders, chefs and beverage professionals. Since then, the brand has expanded to a portfolio of five exciting products, offering consumers an array of choices to enjoy their favorite cocktails, without alcohol. In September 2024, Ritual was fully acquired by Diageo, strengthening the company's position in the non-alcoholic spirits category while continuing the brand's commitment to great-tasting, easy-to-serve non-alcoholic cocktails for any occasion.
